Granny Smith's old-fashioned molasses cookies are a Smith family tradition, warmly spiced with our Organic Ground Ginger and Cassia Cinnamon. The egg-free dough chills overnight, then rolls out for cut-out cookies that are perfect topped with our bright Lemon Icing. The recipe makes about 7 dozen, enough for holiday cookie swaps and plenty to share.
